"A wakes APOCYAN, the blue of memory and brightest coral."[1]
A color of the Neathbow, apocyan is the color of coral, of memory,[2] and of the Zee's waves.[3] The name "apocyan" presumably derives from the color cyan, which has a similar hue, and the Greek prefix apo-, meaning something between "off, away" and "descended from"[4] - like the words "apostate" (gone-away-from-a-cause) or "apocalypse" (un-covering).
Properties
Apocyanic light is difficult to contain, even in a mirrorcatch box; it seems to want to release its memory into the world.[5]
Apocyan has been portrayed as a variety of shades of blue, from teal[6] to azure.
Uses
Chess pieces of this color are sourced from the Principles of Coral,[7] and Crooked-Crosses often lacquer their crosses in this color.[8] Blue Scintillack is extremely valuable and blazes with apocyanic radiance.[9] And an apocyanic piece of amber may be what brings down the Bazaar...[10]
Apocyan can also be used to create "daguerrotypes" of dreams and certain memories, often by blinking in these dreams to produce flashes of apocyanic light.[11]
